佛教不是无因论、神创论、宿命论，而是缘起论。佛陀告诉我们，要用缘起的智慧看世界。惟有正确认识因缘因果，才能了悟生命真相，究竟离苦得乐。
Buddhism is not non-causality, creationism, nor fatalism, but the theory of Dependent Arising. Buddha told us to observe the world with the wisdom of dependent arising. Only through right understanding of causes and conditions and cause and effect can one clearly apprehend the truth of life, ultimately eliminating suffering and obtaining bliss.
Note: dependent arising, also dependent origination, conditioned genesis, causal production, etc., meaning all phenomena are given rise to due to the mutual relationships of countless causes (hetu: 因) and conditions (pratyaya: 缘) and are not independently existent.
